WEST SIDE EVENTS.
Large Number of Valuable Dogs Poisoned
by Some Unknown Person Strych
nine Employed, It Is Thought.
Dogs are belns poisoned by the
wholesale on this side. At lt-ast six
valuable canines have died frum the
effects of strychnine during the pust
forty-elRht and other dugs are dying
from the poison. When Kdwln Hughes,
the contractor, opened the door of his
residence on South Main avenue yes
terday morning he found his pet pus
dof? lying dead on the front porch. The
contortions und rigidity of the muscles
Bhows that poison had caused the
death.
Two docs, one a pug, the other a
black and tan. were found yesterday
morning lying1 deud In a gutter on
Academy street.
A dog owned by Mr. Wheeler, of
South Main avenue, died Monday from
poisoning.
Randolph Jones, of South Main ave
nue, three doors above Mr. Wheeler's
residence, lost a valuable dog yester
day. Mr. Jones, who keeps a confec
tionery store near the Wheeler resi
dence, found his house dog In a dying
condition Monday. The animal died.
A canine which Is valued very high
ly by Air. Thayer, of South Main ave
nue, was poisoned. In this Instance
medical aid was used and the Aog may
recover.
Strychnine is supposed to have been
plven the dugs by some miscreants.
The "doctoring" seems to have been
confined to one locality, as the pois
oned dogs, were from the same neigh
borhood. The poison must have been
placed on meat which the dogs ate.
This Is the general explanation. About
one year ago. It will be remembered,
there was a slaughter of dogs in the
vicinity of Jackson street. M. K.
W'ymbs and others at that time lost
house dogs. Threatenlngs to arrest put
an end to the poisoning'.
CHUIiCII PASTORATES.

the pastorate of the First Welsh Con

noon from the residence of Henry

MOCKING I1IIIUS AS H.VNtlCUS.
Queer Performances They Somcthnus
Go Through in tho Woods.
From the Popular Science Monthly.
Tho power of tho mocking bird to
amuse folks Is not confined to Its abili
ties as a rich-voiced singer The more
birds are studied the more the students
wonder what they can't do Birds with
some marked characteristics are some
times neelected In other respects than
their peculiarity, and so it happens that
the mocking bird Is better known ns an
Imitative singer than ns an original
one, and that it was a dancer as much
utmost as a heron or crane few were
aware.
The mocking birds dance methodic
ally, like woodsmen In a square dance,
lather than with the wild gyrnticms of
a darky hue-down. They keep their
liodles stiff, with head and tnlls erect,
their wings drooping and feathers flat
tened out, something like the English
sparrow when hopping about before Its
sweetheart; but the sparrow's feathers
are thrown out usually instead of be
ing flattened against the body.
Two of the mocking birds make a set,
and they bound ulong. Jumping rather
high, but not far, going from one end
of the play-ground to the other, one
behind the other about a foot, and each
one at the end of the playground turns
In a circle slowly and with dignity, and
goes back again. Sometimes they stop
at some distant object, day dreaming,
apparently, then awny they go again.
Mr. Blake tells about a lien that was
disturbed by the actions of a pair of
mocking birds In their dance, where
upon she left her brood of chickens and
charged the couple with cjuks and
fluttering feathers. Up went the mock
ing birds with true mocking bird talk,
scolding and Bputtering at the hen un
til they fairly drove her away.
HIS (illNyi'ENNIAL PERQUISITE
Every Five Years New Castle's Mayor
Kisses the Prettiest Girl.
From the London News.
Once every Ave years the mayor and
corporation of Newcastle-on-Tyne go In
state from the mouth of the river to the
upper reaches to proclaim their right to
the foreshore. They went recently, and
the mayor, still In accordance with cus
tom, landed at a vlllnge green which
marked the end of the Journey, and kiss
ing the prettiest girl present gave her
a new sovereign. That's for remem
brance, as Ophelia says. There arc
compensations, then, for the tolls Inci
dental to civic functions. There must
be a keen competition for the mayor
alty every five years.
The civic fathers, we observe, are
conveyed In "Elizabethan barges." Is
this some faint and far-off commemor
ation of the fact that there was kissing
every five minutes or so In the reign of
the virgin queen and before? Erasmus
In one of his epistles, says thnt he never
saw such a people for kissing ns the
English. They kissed all around on the
slightest provocation at meeting, at
parting, and, apparently, when anybody
said a good thing. Newcastle's rare In
dulgence In this exercise testifies to the
Increasing pressure of public business In
modern times.

ASSESSINQ BEGINS TODAY.

The physicians labored with him nil

LOCOMOTIVE NOMENCLATURE.
It Has L'uder Gone a Great Change
Within 25 Years.
A New London, Conn., correspondent
writes: Within the past twenty-five
years the nomenclature of locomotives
has undergone a great change. The
old-fashioned way of naming them af
ter persons and places Is now obsolete.
During the war and for several years
afterward one well remembers the bell
top smokestack engines, and on va
rious roads In Connecticut and Massa
chusetts these were named after soma
director or the president of the road.
Some of the well-remembered names
were "Henry P. Haven," "Charles Os
good," "Bentley," and "Colt." Among
the town names used a quarter of a
century ago were "Monson," "Staf
ford," "Palmer," "At'tawaugan,"
"Wnuregan," "Unens," "New London,"
"Groton," "Stonlngton," and "Web
ster." Numbers now have superseded
these names, and It is hard to find a
railroad that has not dropped the old
nomenclature. The old-fashioned way
was to put the nnme of the engine on
the sides of the cab, but the modern
numbers are placed not only on the
cab, but on the front of the locomo
tive. VICTORIA'S GOLD PLATE.
Ten Thousand Pieces t'sed at a State
Concert.
Tho gold plate which was sent up
from Windsor Castle for the state con
cert last Monday, says the St. James
Gazette.amounts to about 10,000 pieces.
It comes from the Gold pantry, which
Is an Iron room situated on the ground
Moor under the royal upnrtments. The
clerk of the puntry gives It out In
Iron boxes and receives a receipt for
It. It is carried by special train, un
der escort of a. guard of soldiers, and
delivered to the butler at Buckingham
palace. He gives a receipt for It and
Is responsible for It while It remains
at the palace. The same formalities
are observed In taking It back.'nnd all
persons concerned nre glad when it Is
once mere restored to the safe keeping
of the gold pantry. The total value of
the plate In this department Is nearly
two millions sterling. A great deal
of It dates from the reign of George
IV; but among; the antiquities are
some pieces which were taken from
the Armada.
